So, one of the leader companies wants to replace the major tool used by developers all around the world, but doesn't want to pay developers to do so.
They want us, external developers, to build it for $25k... But not cash. $25k of cloudflare hosting.
Why do I feel like it's the most insulting offer I have seen in a while?

  It feels pretty out of touch and average, maybe it came from llm brainstorming?

    It seems success if getting through their heads.

    I kind of hope someone does build it, just not exclusively dependant on Cloudflare.
    Perhaps cloudflare thinks this is reasonably possible with LLM driven development, however, the devil on this is in the details to hit the production level footprint of something like github. especially if running from scratch.
